About the event
Come prepared with your questions and any supporting documents you need to explain your situation. You will have a 15-minute time slot to chat with the expert that is present on the day.
At each event we have one of the following guest consultants present. After the consultation if you still have pressing questions you can schedule a paying session with the expert, something you would need to organize yourself.

Registration
Starting in 2025 we have introduced an appontment system for the consutlations. We decided to introduce this system to reduce the long waiting times that we encountered in 2024 with the first come, first serve system.
In order to get an appointment you need to pay the deposit of 15€ (+ Eventbrite fee of 1,92€) to hold your appointment slot. When you come to your appointment then you will receive the 15€ back. In the end, if you come to your appointment, then you will just have to pay for the eventbrite fee (1,92€).
If you do not come to your appointment (without notifying us 48 hours in advance) then you will not receive the 15€ or eventbrite fee (1,92€) back .
If you cancel your appointment you will be refunded the 15€ from the event but not the eventbrite fee of 1,92€. Refunds are possible 48 hours in advance upon request. Otherwise refunds are not possible (!).
If you have any questions about how this event will work, feel free to send us a messsage at internationalhouse@leuven.be.
